Iphone x won't unlock

I just got a new iphone x, I plugged it into my computer and used itunes to restore my iphone 6 backup.


That seemed to work fine. But I can't unlock the phone, the screen shows 'helo' and 'swipe to unlock' but when I swipe the screen just bounces back.


I didn't have a pin code on my iphone 6 if that matters ?


Now what can I do?

Sometimes the 'VoiceOver' feature of 'Accessability' inadvertently turns on - know explanation why - but it prohibits the screen from working or sometimes required hitting the screen twice rapidly. To fix, IF YOU'VE SET-UP SIRI:


1. Lock iphone by clicking the right button

2. re-open home window (it will still be locked)

3. Say, "Hi Siri, turn off "VoiceOver"


It should work if the voiceover feature had inadvertently turned on.
